"I learned how to assist veterans with applications for VA assistance programs and clearly explain the process of each program. I also learned how to explain why veterans may not qualify for certain programs based on income. I feel like my duties in my current position are very similar to the duties of an eligibility specialist."

Great answer! It sounds like your current job responsibilities are similar to this new job, and you do a great job of explaining that. Perhaps add in a sentence that emphasizes how much you like what you're currently doing and how you look forward to doing something similar within this new role.
